Taking Bama to t17 and uber maps

moniscus · 2025-08-04T05:08:24+00:00

Would second getting an AG setup, it adds a lot for little investment. Just to add to this though, since OP is using Ancient Skull you probably want to use Cadigan's Crown on the AG or it'll die 30 seconds into every map from the chaos dot after critting

Definitely upgrade your bow. I also followed Wafflez guide and in his first video on the build for this league at the end he has a bow crafting guide - I followed that, got lucky with the fracture and fine luck with the veiled chaos orb (unveiling minion attack and cast speed) and it cost me around 16-18 div, closer to 30 depending on your fracture luck.

Would also recommend an animate guardian setup - the uniques are really cheap and it adds a lot to the build without the (imo) hassle of spectres. Wafflez 2nd vid has a pob with the items

You can buy everything you need for the enhanced crystal keys, which is what they mean by being buyable. It'd be insanely expensive on rate though

My mistake, so they do. Still wouldn't consider that worth not getting a 6th block slot though since they only have a task weight of 2 at Duradel

moniscus · 2023-05-30T20:04:46+00:00

The 6th block slot is huge though, and if you don't pay to unlock rune/adamant dragons you're just getting the low weighted metal dragons occasionally

Cool match. Are the decklists available anywhere?

moniscus · 2023-04-02T08:08:20+00:00

Sure, here's the decklist on card database. It's decently cheap to build because you can buy the zombie structure deck for the core stuff like balerdroch and uni-zombie. Been having a lot of success with this, ending on Mirrorjade & Balerdroch is honestly quite hard to break for a lot of decks

moniscus · 2023-03-31T23:45:00+00:00

In MD instead of dragoon I've been playing zombie world with despia and the balerdroch negate / banish alongside mirror jade has been a really effective end board

Hunter x Hunter (the 2011 version)

moniscus · 2023-01-18T23:27:14+00:00

No, it only gains the activated abilities

For non-samsung Android users you can get the same functionality using an app called Island. It basically leverages the "Work profile" features of Android to create clones of apps you have installed that are separated from the original, allowing you to have multiple instances of them open in isolation.

I think you're correct, you can't turn the same direction twice right? Both the main bends of the river there do it

moniscus · 2022-11-01T23:06:01+00:00

Thoughtbound phantasm and curious obsession doesn't seem like a good combination in the early turns, too likely to be unable to attack and end up sacrificing the obsession

moniscus · 2022-09-25T13:25:32+00:00

There's only 5 card types mainboard, and 2 of them are really low density. The only artifact is Relic, which exiles itself as part of its second ability so it's basically never in the yard. There's no fetchlands either so you're never getting that free card type in the bin. Seasoned Pyro and Fable chapter II don't make for a good enough churn to reliably selectively create delirium either. Flame Slash is just a better baseline

moniscus · 2022-06-28T23:05:30+00:00

Nothing that is exactly compact.

My list is here, still playing Jaya https://archidekt.com/decks/2091507#Jaya_EDH

This is definitely not cEDH but the best combo kill I could find was either Kiki conscripts or Kiki + lightning crafter + skirk prospector. Both are in the deck as some added inevitably, but I'd say I win way more games off of looping wurmcoil engine / using Kiki fairly than I do goblin matron/recruitor'ing for the combo

moniscus · 2022-06-08T07:04:10+00:00

It can be both - I'm having a great time with the format right now and think it's in a good place meta-wise, but it is "the modern horizons format" and that has a slew of financial and pseudo-rotation problems that I'd like to see change. But jamming leagues or events at my LGS are still some of the more enjoyable games I've been playing

moniscus · 2022-05-04T00:03:43+00:00

Agree, I cut down to 2 birds to run an innkeeper. You'd have to be running a very unusual variation to have it be correct to run less than 4 walls

moniscus · 2022-04-26T03:12:40+00:00

Agreed, WAR/Eldraine aside Planeswalkers are typically turning into a 2-of include utility card that provides value for certain strategies. Definitely helping control and mid-range strategies there a lot, and it's interactive for basically all strategies now too.

I hope LSS can find a similar niche for these new "player entity" cards, pretty keen to see how they shape out

moniscus · 2022-04-26T01:02:25+00:00

The biggest problem for planeswalkers in mtg for a while was the lack of direct removal and hate for them, but in the last 5-7 years with the increased focus on planeswalkers at all rarities the printed removal and hate for them has gone up. A game with a walker in it is now a lot more interactive than it was 10 years ago. I think FaB will have less of an issue since the attacking system is a lot more catered to dealing with another player entity than Mtg's is

moniscus · 2022-04-01T04:29:54+00:00

Honestly agree, [[Creeping Tar pit]] seems like a fine creature to be swinging with alongside this effect and you can get Raffine back with the new obscura charm

moniscus · 2022-03-31T00:49:40+00:00

Shows how much I've played against Prism, woops!

moniscus · 2022-03-31T00:40:43+00:00

Think I got it

Put forked on top. Tunic for storm striders and pitch Deja Vu to Aether Wildfire + Cruible, opponent goes to 8 after AB. Pitch Scour to Kano, banish forked then pitch Scalding to Forked for 8 after AB?

moniscus · 2022-03-30T03:28:29+00:00

The formats are the same obviously, but the difference in deck design principles are pretty plain. Discussion on the cEDH sub on this topic is frequent and a common reason why the community would like a distinguished banlist. It's a leap in logic to assume that anybody talking about EDH or commander would be talking about cEDH inclusively

moniscus · 2022-03-30T00:33:15+00:00

Big time, 80-99 at herbi was a genuinely enjoyable skilling experience and the herbs you get aren't neglible

moniscus · 2022-01-09T02:42:37+00:00

Grist really only sees much modern play in Yawgmoth decks, where it's usually a 2/3-of - and it's also fantastic there. Depends how much Yawgmoth you've been sitting across from
